MUSHROOMS of the OTTAWA NATIONAL FOREST Compiled By MUSHROOMS OF THE OTTAWA NATIONAL FOREST Compiled by Dana L. Richter, School of Forest Resources and Environmental Science, Michigan Technological University, Houghton, MI for Ottawa National Forest, Ironwood, MI March, 2011 Introduction There are many thousands of fungi in the Ottawa National Forest filling every possible niche imaginable. A remarkable feature of the fungi is that they are ubiquitous! The mushroom is the large spore-producing structure made by certain fungi. Only a relatively small number of all the fungi in the Ottawa forest ecosystem make mushrooms. Some are distinctive and easily identifiable, while others are cryptic and require microscopic and chemical analyses to accurately name. This is a list of some of the most common and obvious mushrooms that can be found in the Ottawa National Forest, including a few that are uncommon or relatively rare. The mushrooms considered here are within the phyla Ascomycetes – the morel and cup fungi, and Basidiomycetes – the toadstool and shelf-like fungi. There are perhaps 2000 to 3000 mushrooms in the Ottawa, and this is simply a guess, since many species have yet to be discovered or named. This number is based on lists of fungi compiled in areas such as the Huron Mountains of northern Michigan (Richter 2008) and in the state of Wisconsin (Parker 2006). The list contains 227 species from several authoritative sources and from the author’s experience teaching, studying and collecting mushrooms in the northern Great Lakes States for the past thirty years. Although comments on edibility of certain species are given, the author neither endorses nor encourages the eating of wild mushrooms except with extreme caution and with the awareness that some mushrooms may cause life-threatening illness or even death. This list is not intended as a guide for persons interested in consuming wild mushrooms as food; for these daring individuals it is recommended that guidebooks or an expert in mushroom identification be consulted. In the table below, abundance is categorized as widespread and abundant, occasional, uncommon or rare.

  • Molecular Phylogenetic Studies in the Genus Amanita
    1170 Molecular phylogenetic studies in the genus Amanita I5ichael Weiß, Zhu-Liang Yang, and Franz Oberwinkler Abstracl A group of 49 Amanita species that had been thoroughly examined morphologically and amtomically was analyzed by DNA sequence compadson to estimate natural groups and phylogenetic rclationships within the genus. Nuclear DNA sequences coding for a part of the ribosomal large subunit were determined and evaluated using neighbor-joining with bootstrap analysis, parsimony analysis, conditional clustering, and maximum likelihood methods, Sections Amanita, Caesarea, Vaginatae, Validae, Phalloideae, and Amidella were substantially confirmed as monophyletic groups, while the monophyly of section Lepidell.t remained unclear. Branching topologies between and within sections could also pafiially be derived. Stbgenera Amanita an'd Lepidella were not supported. The Mappae group was included in section Validae. Grouping hypotheses obtained by DNA analyses are discussed in relation to the distribution of morphological and anatomical chamcters in the studied species.

  • Mushroom Root Rot Republished for the Internet April 2008
    FOREST AND SHADE TREE PESTS Leaflet Number 11 Published Feb 1994 Mushroom Root Rot Republished for the Internet April 2008 SIGNIFICANCE Mushroom Root Rot, caused by the fungus Armillaria tabescens (syn. Clitocybe tabescens and Armillariella tabescens), is a common and widespread disease affecting both conifers and hardwoods in Florida. This disease occurs statewide and has been reported on more than 200 species of trees and shrubs. RECOGNITION Affected plants can show one or more of a variety of symptoms, including: thinning of the crown, yellowing of foliage, premature defoliation, branch dieback, decaying roots, Fig. 1. Typical cluster of mushrooms of Armillaria tabescens. At right, cluster windthrow, and lesions at excavated and displayed to show common base and spore-producing gills under mushroom caps. the root collar. Some host plants show symptoms of decline for several years before dying. Others die rapidly without any obvious prior symptoms. Mushroom root rot can often be identified without laboratory diagnosis. Conspicuous clusters of mushrooms, (Fig. 1.) which sometimes appear near the base of infected trees, are the most easily recognized diagnostic indicators of the disease. These mushrooms are usually produced in the fall, but they can occur at other times as well. When fresh they are tan to brown, fleshy, with gills beneath the cap, and lacking a ring (annulus) around the stem. While the presence of the characteristic mushrooms is a sure indicator of mushroom root rot, the lack of these fruiting bodies does not indicate the absence of disease. Mushrooms are not formed every year and they decay rapidly when they do appear.

Kummer and its acceptance as type species of Armillaria (Fr.:Fr.) Staude. Due to recognition of different type species over the years and an extremely variable generic concept, at least 274 species and varieties have been placed in Armillaria (or in Armillariella Karst., its obligate synonym). Only about forty species belong in the genus Armillaria sensu stricto, while the rest can be placed in forty-three other modem genera. This study is based on original descriptions in the literature, as well as studies of type specimens and generic and species concepts by other authors. This publication consists of an alphabetical listing of all epithets used in Armillaria or Armillariella, with their basionyms, currently accepted names, and other obligate and facultative synonyms.

The effects of forest management practices on a plantation of willow (Salix) and poplar (Populus) over Agaricomycetes basidiomes biodiversity were studied for one year in an island located in Paraná Delta, Argentina. Dry weight and number of basidiomes were measured. We found 28 species belonging to Agaricomycetes: 26 species of Agaricales, one species of Polyporales and one species of Russulales.
